Seinfeld's "Low Talker"; London Part One
Ok, now that everything has settled down, and we have a "new" Amir, and slept a lot after arriving from London, I'm gonna post some of the things that happened while I was in London, it's gonna be in random, so what ever comes to mind, I'm gonna post it.
I have a cousin that works in London, he got his masters last year there, and decided to work and live there for a while, so I called him up to get together (I haven't seen him for 3 years) , so we decided to meet in Knights Bridge's "One On One" restaurant. I told my other relatives to come with me, but they all said they were busy, so it was just me and my other cousin (she's my best friend, the one I mentioned before in previous posts). But all of a sudden, she says:" Hey, you go alone, I'm not in the mood for going out tonight, besides, he's your cousin and I'm shy." (Cuz she's from my father's side and he's from my mom's side). Of course there was no use even after begging her, so it was just me.
So my cousin calls me an hour before our get together, and tells me: "Hey, are you coming alone?" I replied: "Yes, why?" He says: "Well, can I bring my girlfriend? Do you mind?" I said: "No, why would I? Bring her, this is a chance to meet her since I'm coming alone, I've heard all about her during summer, from your mom's nagging of you marrying her LOOOOOOOOOL"
He laughed: "Yeah, you know how my mom is, but she was here in September, and finally liked her, I THINK!! LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL"
I said to myself so I won't hurt his feelings: "I don't think so….cuz she still nags, but didn't tell him so she won't hurt his feelings" LOOOL
And he continues: "Besides, we haven't talked about marriage yet, it's too early to decide if she's the one, but I admit I enjoy her company, but mom thinks that cuz she's British that she's marrying me for the money, and by the time we come back home, she's gonna dump me and ask for a divorce and take away my children LOOOL"
Well it is risky, cuz even my brother is hooked up with an American women, but he's crazy about her and thinks that she's the one, and my other brother is seeing a French girl, but he's not that crazy about her, so there you go, all my male relatives have gone global LOOOOOL!! But I do admit I worry about them, I advice them to be careful, it's good they take the advice well except my brother who's with the American girl, he's in love, and believes that she won't leave him, besides, she already lives here, so that’s' not THAT frightening I guess.
Anyhoo, who isn't getting divorced nowadays huh? And I don't interfere with two people who are together, Allah yewafig eljamee3 either with Kuwaitis or from any other country, I have never minded that, I always joke that I wanna marry an Italian man….heeheehee Just hope that everyone makes the right choice by knowing how they feel good inside…
Well, back to the main subject.
So I was there on time, and my cousin with his girlfriend came after 5 mins, my cousin walked faster when he saw me & threw himself in my arms and hugged me hard saying: "I MISSED YOU!!!" I almost cried saying: "I MISSED YOU TOO!!" (He's the only cousin of all my male "grown men" cousins that I hug and kiss, I don't know why, but it happened like this). He's 25 but I still see him adorable, and he has become so handsome and tall, so we go inside and sit, and still, she hasn't said a word except nice to meet you while shaking hands outside, cuz me and my cousin were so busy catching up with things that happened in our lives, and she was sitting there smiling at us, till I don't remember what it was that my cousin told her so she started to talk, at first I thought that I wasn't hearing her well, so I said: "Excuse me, sorry I didn't hear that."
But she repeats the same thing with the same volume, so I nodded "yes yes" pretending I'm hearing her, I don't know why I did that?!! LOOOOOOOOL
I didn't wanna embarrass her, so again, she starts talking, and talking to my cousin, and they both laugh HA HA HA HA HA, and talking back to me, and I still can't hear what she's saying!! I only heard her like a couple of times that night.
The restaurant wasn't even crowded, but I pretended that I was hearing her and laughed a stupid laugh that was soooooooo fake!!! LOOOOOOOOOOL
It was hysterical!!! You could see it in my body language and in my facial expressions that I was always leaning forward and concentrating a lot just to hear a casual conversation, like I was in an anatomy class listening and concentrating on what the professor has to say.
It was exactly like that Seinfeld's episode of Kramer's girlfriend "The Low Talker" episode…I suddenly remembered that episode and want to laugh cuz I was living it!!!
It was like this:
The Low Talker: "hfjheifo vscvcwrda opiroi mnjngf."
Me: "Ahaaa, yes yes…."
The Low Talker: "dsdhudgw pollmhgeqw zxdasexaw czfdq HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!"
Me: "Yes exactly HA HA HA HA HA!!! (In a frightful fake way)
The Low Talker: "cpioidye ,mijoigf hbhgdyug rrwewrtdt bvfryhoak wrrfgyvzp."
Me: "Yes, true true….aha aha aha…ah YUP YUP" (More nodding and placing my hand under my chin with a couple of my fingers on my mouth so to hold my laugh)
Oh my God!! It was nerve wrecking!!! I SWEAR!!! I still laugh when I remember that night, I was praying that she wasn’t gonna say something I would end up hating to do it, like when Seinfeld agreed to wear the stupid pirate puffy shirt without knowing!!! LOOOOOOOOOOOOL
